Default TJ lowering kit

I recently put a down payment on a new 09 Ultra, but I'm wanting to lower it an inch. HD is telling me to use their low profile shocks, but TJ lowering kit will lower the back end one inch WITHOUT changing the angle of the stock shocks. Does anyone have experience with these kits. It seems like a no brainer. I would be able to lower the bike and still have 13" shocks rather than 12" shocks.

I just looked at there kit and it sure looks to me like it changes the angle of the shocks just like all those kits do. If it really does do it with out changing the angle I'd sure like to see how they did it.

Cool 09FLoaTeR

just ordered some online from eGG. they claim no angle change either. Hope not but if it changes it changes. I wouldn't think a few degrees in the rear angle will make too much diff. It's not like I'm racin with my RG
